Aha, you've stumbled onto the myth of T-roll, Ollpa, Lapa, and Packion: an opposing and somewhat mysterious counter-analogue to Thanatar. Where we know the different Tien and Atyar cults were mystically welded together, T-roll, Ollpa, Lapa, and Packion were initally one Great and Wonderful being "TrollPak".
In the Greater Darkness (1984-1994) Trollpak, pursued by two secret organizations ("Chapter 11" and "Chapter 13") realized his survival was at stake and thus quested to find the Hill of Avalon. Upon the Hill of Avalon (famous for it's battles and it's lost city of Eldarad that nobody in particular is looking for...) TrollPak decided that his best chance of survival lay in self-dismemberment. Unfortunately for TrollPak, his lesser selves T-roll, Ollpa, Lapa, and Packion did not do well. Of course, most worshippers realized that they could simply go back to their older worship of TrollPak, and ignore the new incarnations totally since they did little more than repeat in a feeble and pointless fashion the worship that had been so complete in TrollPak. So T-roll, Ollpa, Lapa, and Packion languish yet, waiting desperately until someone, anyone picks them up - a hope with is almost as pathetic as it is futile.
